PHOENIX - Federal indictments charging seven counts of interstate trafficking in obscene material were reportedly unsealed today against JM Productions and its principal Jeff Steward, as well as retailer/Internet distributor Five Star Video, based in Tempe, Ariz., and what appear to be two of Five Star's principals.

-advertisement-

The indictment charges that Five Star engaged in both physical and Web transportation of the video features Gag Factor 15 and 18 and American Bukkake 13, all of which were produced by JM, and Filthy Things 6, a Powersville Production distributed by JM.

Specifically, the indictment, which was handed down on May 23, charges that the Five Star Video defendants "knowingly used an interactive computer service and other facilities and means of interstate and foreign commerce to sell and distribute, to a location in Northern Virginia, obscene DVDs ... in violation of Title 18, United States Code, Sections 1465 ["Transportation of obscene matters for sale or distribution"] and (2)(a)," which allows the government to target the principals of a business. The transportation allegedly took place on Feb. 6 and 10 of this year.

The indictment also charges that those same defendants "knowingly used the United States mails to mail and deliver to a location in Northern Virginia, a DVD containing obscene matter," while another set of counts charges that those same defendants "knowingly used an express company or other common carrier for carriage in interstate commerce and delivery to a location outside of the State of Arizona, of a package which contained DVDs that are obscene."

So far, AVN has only been able to obtain information as to the first seven counts of the indictment, which consists of a total of 18 counts. Counts 8 through 14 also relate to transportation of obscene material using a common carrier, while Counts 15 through 17 charge some or all of the defendants with "Engaging in a Business of Selling or Transferring Obscene Material."

The final count, Count 18, invokes 18 U.S.C. §1467, the Criminal Forfeiture statute, which states in part, "(a) Property Subject to Criminal Forfeiture.—A person who is convicted of an offense involving obscene material under this chapter shall forfeit to the United States such person’s interest in — (1) any obscene material produced, transported, mailed, shipped, or received in violation of this chapter; (2) any property, real or personal, constituting or traceable to gross profits or other proceeds obtained from such offense; and (3) any property, real or personal, used or intended to be used to commit or to promote the commission of such offense, if the court in its discretion so determines, taking into consideration the nature, scope, and proportionality of the use of the property in the offense."

Several adult industry attorneys are reportedly already involved in the case, but so far, none have been willing to comment on the indictment.

This indictment represents the Bush administration's second major federal assault on an adult video production company, and as in the case of the first target, Extreme Associates, the government's focus has been on videos which fall somewhat outside standard adult video fare. In Gag Factor 15, for instance, Ashley Blue essays a parody of Iraq's Abu Ghraib prison, where prisoners are tortured through throat-fucking, while in American Bukkake 13, Sabrina Jayde is fitted with one of those conical shields veterinarians use to keep dogs from licking their wounds, but which in this case the "Bukkake Boys" use to direct their spew so Sabrina can lick it all up.

All of the above-named videos were directed by award-winning director Jim Powers, and two, American Bukkake 13 and Gag Factor 18, received AAAA ratings, with the other two scoring just half a point lower. In addition, the Flower Tucci/Johnny Thrust scene from Gag Factor 15 was pre-nominated for Best Oral Scene. Reviews of all of the named features can be found on AVN.com.

i agree but all the indictments are for trafficking obscenity, but JM didnt traffic anything they just produced it. Five star did all the shipping (and the sale too presumably) Rob black is in trouble for trafficking because he sold and shipped it all himself.

but im no lawyer....anyone with a legal background wanna chime in?... c'mon cambria, create a fake account and fill us in

Steward said members of the LAPD's organized crime and vice division stopped his car a few blocks from his home - "they were waiting for me" - and armed with the search warrant, searched his vehicle, his residence and later his office at Legend Video's headquarters in Chatsworth. Police also stopped and searched a separate vehicle containing Steward's wife and the couple's 15-year-old son, Steward said. Police seized three copies each of American Bukkake 11 and Liquid Gold 5 from Steward's office, he said.

---

Quote:

---

Jeff Steward told GeneRossExtreme.com: "Then they followed me over to Legend because this is where the videos are. I told them I'm cooperating so I gave them three copies each and all the model releases for those videos. That's all they wanted. I guess they're going to see if they can build some kind of a case. I was explaining to them we're business people, we don't have to be treated like f---ing criminals. I didn't commit a murder. I shipped a video. They didn't have to put me in the back of a squad car to take me home. They didn't have to embarrass me in front of my neighbors. They had 30 officers at my house. There were 20 at Legend. As I explained to them there was somebody probably being killed down the f---ing street but, instead of paying attention to that, they were at my house petting my cat and looking at my furnishings.

What I mean is that I don't think any interstate commerce charges have ever included the method of delivery reading like this -

Yeah, it seems like a draconian new angle... They're grasping at straws looking for any needle in a haystack of charges to stick to JM. It's amazing they actually comb through the material and devise ways to indict. They must have a war-room for this when they're supposed to be protecting us from terrorists. If I were the lawyers for JM I'd ask them if they got aroused looking at these dvds.

the big problem is that you never know when the obscenity boundary is crossed, the law is very unclear, i seen some passages of max hardcore's trial and it was sort of a laugh, with prosecutors discussing whether a fisting is considered a real fisting, and the limit was that the thumb must not go inside or is considered obscenity, but how much of the thumb?

So why didn't you name names at the time, Luke?

Here's some news for you...a celebrity is going to get into trouble with the law. Just remember where you heard it first when it's all over the TV and newspapers.

Also, one of my sources tells me that some porn chick is going to be getting the boot from LA Direct.

OK, let me pad this out a bit....um, Holly Randall stopped at some traffic lights last Friday, yeah! Some guy wrote something on some blog about the Mafia and stuff. Mary Carey farted and just called to tell me about it. Here's some of Da Burg's '10 Questions...'. Now to reinforce my psuedo-Jew self image my just dropping in a couple of Hebrew words...lemme see...meshuggah, yenta, kosher, shiksah, schlemiel.

But nothing any legitmate producer makes is violating freedom of speech. Its all 100% legal and made using talent that is verefied to be of age.

you actually made a good point. the feds need to spend their time going after kiddie porn, not consenting adult porn.


Personally i think that watching cnn during the Iraq War and seeing live video feed of dead, bloodied bodies, and men trying to kill each other was highly obscene,offensive and morally repugnant. whoever started the war needs to be indicted with 300 counts of streaming live obscenity via mass media.

If kiddie porn were legal, then ALL these producers would be shooting it.

Technically, can't a snuff film be consentual on the part of the snufee and snuffer both? I guess "rape," by definition, can't be. But I can think of some sicko's that not only want to die, but want to die while it's being filmed for generations thereafter to enjoy. Doctor K-whatever did this a bunch, even filmed it.

If you happen to live in the area, Five Star has an outlet store on Univserity and Priest in Tempe. Bonus: it's just down the street from Top's Liquor. You can get all your degenerate supplies in a single block!

Stephanie and Drew have been outed numerous times for their "It's your fault not mine" attitude. Every password gets stolen, fuck the ADT users, not our problem...it's cause the whores are stupid and forget their passwords. Five Star busted by the feds...Steph says, Screw 'em, not our fault.

JM Productions/Five Star Obscenity Bust

Ernest Greene aka Ira Levine posts June 2 on Nina.com:

I do not see anything narrowly political about the bust, as in somehow related to the Abu Ghraib thing, but it is clearly part of the larger DOJ strategy of calling out the harshest material first, hoping to secure a conviction for adult obscenity against someone somewhere that will actually hold up as far as SCOTUS.

Therefore, I'm hardly shocked that JM was next on the list after Rob Black. Like Black, Jeff Steward has a major attitude problem and that's exactly what gets you busted everytime. When I was a police beat reporter, I learned that the crime for which most people actually got dragged downtown was the general offense of "being an asshole," a description I heard used aloud more than once on that gig. Certainly and at every level Steward qualifies.

Full disclosure here. He said something truly vicious about Nina on his cheesy little forum a few months ago that led to some discussion of litigation, so if I'm not exactly grief-stricken over his troubles at a personal level, that should come as no surprise. Having some jerk post or allow to be posted on his bandwidth the suggestion that one's wife should be murdered along with other porn performers of her generation solely on grounds of said jerk's ideas about aging isn't likely to inspire sympathy.

And it doesn't help that I find many of his movies and his company's general posture repellant. Any producer with "Whores Degraded Daily" as a slogan clearly isn't too concerned about the disapproval of others, including those who can actually make something of it.

However, the fundamental things apply. The principle at stake here is still freedom of expression. Steward's company has, at times, been accused of physically and psychologically abusing performers. If any of that is true, the individuals involved should be arrested and tried for assault and battery. But that's not the charge that's been filed. The indictments concern the distribution of obscene content, and such indictments must always be opposed, however offensive the content in question. "The principle of free thought is not free thought for those who agree with us but freedom for the thought we hate," says US Supreme Court Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes in United States v. Schwimmer (1929). That's what's at stake both in this instance and in the Rob Black case.

Should the feds succeed in establishing that some speech (as opposed to physical action) is so hateful as to merit criminal prosecution, any speech might be next, and don't think it won't be. If they get their convictions against Steward and Black, expect them to try and draw the noose tighter until it includes Vivid, Andrew Blake and us. That's why we have to fight on behalf of those we don't feel the least obligation to like. It's our own rights we're defending.

If any woman feels she was actually brutalized in a Donkey Punch video, let her come forward and see the brigands hauled off to the slammer amid cheers from many of us. Until then, this is still about sending somebody to jail over some pictures, and that kind of thing has no place in any society that calls itself free.

Nina Hartley writes: "Hate him as I do (or is it pity?), we must defend JM Productions against any content-based prohibition or it's our ass next. I would hope, though, that some woman would come forward to press assault charges against him for the Donkey Punch series. Reprehsible. Simply awful stuff."

I get a call from a source at JM Productions: "Donkey Punch is a Chatsworth Pictures [owned by Grip & Cram Johnson (Tony Malice)] movie, not a JM movie. Jeff Steward had nothing to do with it."

Tony Malice emails: "Luke, here is the post about Nina Hartley that Ernest Greene is referencing. It is not by Jeff Steward or JM Productions. People insist on making the false assumption that we are the only posters on XPT, that is FALSE. There are literally hundreds and thousands of posters."

June 9, Ira Levine writes:

Hi Luke,

It's been brought to my attention that an item you quoted from a recent thread on www.nina.com regarding the legal problems of JM productions and Jeff Steward gave Mr. Steward grave offense. Rereading what I said there, I can see why. As my original intention was to defend Mr. Steward's First Amendment rights and I could easily enough have done so without personalizing the whole matter, I feel I owe him an apology and offer it wholeheartedly and without qualification. I have removed the thread in question from our site and will have no further comment regarding Mr. Steward or his company there or elsewhere.

I oppose obscenity prosecutions in all instances and feel that it is in the best interest of the rest of the industry to do so as well. Enough said.

Nate Glass writes:

With all due respect to an icon like Nina Hartley… To say that everyone needs to defend Jeff is EXACTLY right. Now when it comes to beating up Jeff for Donkey Punch…ummm…I find it hard to read the text from 2 performers who have made a good number of hardcore BONDAGE titles, lecturing Jeff on the content of his product. Is Donkey Punch much different than having clothespins all over someone’s body while they wear a leather face mask?

And before someone tries to explain to me what Bondage is all about. I already know. But do you think these feds care about the difference? Weren’t all the girls in Donkey Punch consenting adults? Aren’t all the girls in Nina’s bondage movies consenting adults that enjoy the pleasures of pain? I have the highest respect for what Nina and Ernest have done and continue to do, they put out a great product that isn’t for EVERYONE and not EVERYONE can understand. There are a lot of people who don’t understand how anyone could be into Bondage, but there’s also a LOT of people who don’t “get” JM’s product either.

When I used to get obscenity charges from the city of Dallas ½ the time it was for Max Hardcore, the other ½ the time it was for bondage and foot fetish videos. Go figure. The feds are going after the shock value first, so that they can get some sort of precedent set using Jeff, Max, and Rob. Then it’s open season.
